FPT Industrial, the Iveco Group brand dedicated to the design, production, and sale of powertrains and solutions for on- and off-road vehicles, as well as marine and power generation applications, is providing the new and efficient power behind the all-new JCB Fastrac 6000 Series tractors, confirming itself as the preferred choice of agricultural machine manufacturers all around the world.
JCB, a leading manufacturer of agricultural equipment, has just launched the new range of its Fastrac high-speed tractors, staying true to the innovative and groundbreaking concept that defines the series: an exceptional combination of productivity, efficiency, versatility, and operator comfort. To achieve this, it has relied on FPT Industrial's N67 engines, establishing a new partnership designed to create synergies for the benefit of all end users.
This latest partnership highlights FPT Industrial's commitment to delivering advanced powertrain solutions that meet the demanding requirements of the off-road sector, seamlessly combining efficiency with environmental responsibility. Specifically, the N67 engine has been selected for its remarkable compactness and class-leading power density.
The FPT Industrial NEF family, as market leader in the powertrain sector, is designed for the most demanding missions of agricultural equipment and is testament to the brand's technological excellence. Since 2001, over two million engines have been produced for a number of applications: agriculture, construction equipment, on-road, marine, and power generation.
With class-leading performance in terms of power and torque, fuel efficiency, and reliability, the N67 stands out for its flexibility, featuring a six-cylinder configuration, with a wide range of options to customize the solution according to customer requirements. Thanks to FPT Industrial's pioneering EGR-free combustion and exclusive, patented HI-eSCR2 after-treatment technology, the NEF series represents the productivity benchmark for mid-range applications, with further enhancements in performance and efficiency with newly designed Stage V engines.
"We are very proud of this new partnership with a leading Brand like JCB, providing the core power of the brand-new 6000 series," says Sylvain Blaise, President of Iveco Group's Powertrain Business Unit. "At FPT Industrial, our commitment has always been to stand alongside our customers by meeting their evolving needs in a constantly changing agricultural landscape which requires performance and advanced solutions. As a trusted and dedicated partner, we are confident that this partnership will pave the way for mutual growth and shared success."

Featured Product
Photophyll™ Select from CREE LED
Photophyll Select is a new phosphor-converted LED color with blue and green spectral output tuned for horticulture applications. These LEDs are designed to replace the white LEDs that are common in two-channel white + red horticulture luminaires. By maximizing green content and minimizing red content versus standard lighting LEDs, this LED color enables significant enhancements to luminaire cost and performance. Photophyll Select LEDs are the industry's first LEDs to be entirely binned in horticulture metrics, enabling more straightforward spectrum design without confusing translations or conversions. The spectral output of these LEDs is binned into two metrics, both of which are based on the amount of PPF in standard Blue (400-499 nm), Green (500-599 nm) and Red (600-700 nm) bands. The two spectral metrics are percentage of Red PPF content and the ratio of Green to Blue PPF content.
